Jack,
I’m very disappointed that I will not be able to make it to the Runhouse HS Basketball Showcase. My club is still in the playoffs and I will not be stateside in time to attend. Please forward me a video so I can keep track of your prospects at the event for future references. Take care and I will talk to you soon.

The Boys Club defeated the Belfied in an exciting DeBose & Pembleton High School Classic. The final score was 60-48 but the game was close most of the game. Carl Wallace led the way for the Boys Club with 15 points while tournament MVP Tyree Smith had 26 for Gratz. Smith was spectacular in each game. The 6′ 5″ athletic swingman displays alot of potential and can score from anywhere on the court.

Daniel Armah, aka “The Accra Assassin”, got a chance to show Lakeland’s coach Cedric Brown his skills recently at Rick Ball’s Juco Showcase in Chicago.
Armah not only was the leading rebounder but also finished as the 3rd leading scorer. Coach Brown was very pleased with his newest recruit and has alot of confidence in his ability.
Speaking with Coach Brown last week also revealed that Armah has had a growth spurt and is now a legitimate 6′ 7″. When asked about the growth Armah simply replied “I hope I grow to 6′ 8″. We hope you grow as well Dan and feel confident you will have a breakout season with Lakeland.
